Question #ecd71

Answer 1

2x+2

Explanation:

Simple, here one has to use two of the basic results of differentiation, that is `\frac{d}{dx}(x^n)=nx^{n-1}` and `\frac{d}{dx}(kx^n)=k\frac{d}{dx}(x^n)` where `k` is a constant.

So, taking the above function at hand, if we go on to differentiate it, we get `\frac{d}{dx}(x^2)+\frac{d}{dx}(2x)=2x^(2-1)+2*1x^(1-1)`

So, simplifying the power terms, we get what was the answer provided above.
